Opium is one of those rare signature fragrances that draws pleasant comments. I rarely wear it without receiving at least one positive reaction from someone who knows and loves it or is intrigued by the rich amber-like aroma.

I wear Opium on an almost daily basis. It not only stimulates my senses but contibutes to a personal sense of well-being. Our sense of smell is tied to the long-term memory area of the brain in ways that process emotions, cognition and memory-storage and retrival. Using Opium is part of my personal identity and reinforces positive feelings of self-esteem.

At least twice a year, I try to purchase the large container (3.3 oz) spray, and look for combination values, such as adding the smaller size of parfum to use for special occasions. I find the high quality and enduring scent of Opium some of the reasons I continue to be drawn to this parfum.

I am 60 yrs old, and though not blessed with striking beauty, I find joy and pleasure in using this exotic perfume. I would recommend its rich qaulity and character to any woman seeking a signature sensual aroma.

Opium has a new distinctive and exquisitely designed shape for its bottle in the 3.3 oz size. It is an attractive addition to my dresser accroutrements.

This was a requested gift for a friend who really likes heavy sweet fragrances like Obsession. It's very recognisable and a bit too heavy for me, but she totally loves it.
